I have less than 4 days to complete every aspect of the Tiny
Travel Trailer construction project. Next Friday I leave for a 4 day camping trip
and everything from trailer towing safety to interior comfort items must be
complete. I took off from work on Monday because the trailer must be towed to the
Inspection center to be inspected and have a VIN number assignment. There are
currently some suspension issues to be worked out. This truly is "Crunch
Time" and I can fell the pressure to complete the project. Just to make it
extra difficult for me, Mother Nature is throwing her fast ball in the form of non stop
down pouring rain which will last all weekend.

I dug out the wheel wells with my router to accommodate the new
larger fatter tires.

The wonderful WET working conditions. It was like this all weekend
and it never stopped raining.

the new counter was installed on the right

My Cousin Chris brought over these killer blue tiles to surround the
stove area (safety). I love them and will finish with smaller trim tile along the
top edge.

Foam being cut and fitted for the bed

Ready to tow. I took a short ride over to a friends house and then
on the highway up to 55mph. Sway is an immediate ISSUE. I will work that out.
Now we need to go for inspection tomorrow at 10:30AM 30 miles from home.

Rigged...all lights and brakes work well :)

A Drum roll please....... THE INSPECTION STATION

Blurry shot but.... SUCCESS!!!!!

The trailer passed the inspection and was issues a NYS VIN number and
identification sticker. I registered the trailer 20 minutes after leaving the
inspection station. Folks there is still a mess of small projects going on the
interior but they will be worked out quickly. I consider this the end of the build
story. I will add a few more pages of finish work as I complete the interior but the
trailer is functional as a unit. All of the utilities have been tested and found to
be in working order. New York State gave the trailer a stamp of approval after
review of the frame and suspension as well as a review of all my receipts for major
components (axle, brakes, steel, tires, hitch mount, etc)
